Liam R. Howlett ad776537cc Add mutex_lock_killable
Similar to mutex_lock_interruptible, it can be interrupted by a fatal
signal only.

Peter Zijlstra e4564f79d4 lockdep: fixup mutex annotations
The fancy mutex_lock fastpath has too many indirections to track the caller
hence all contentions are perceived to come from mutex_lock().

Avoid this by explicitly not using the fastpath code (it was disabled already
anyway).

Peter Zijlstra 96645678cd lockstat: measure lock bouncing
__acquire
        |
       lock _____
        |        \
        |    __contended
        |         |
        |        wait
        | _______/
        |/
        |
   __acquired
        |
   __release
        |
     unlock

We measure acquisition and contention bouncing.

This is done by recording a cpu stamp in each lock instance.

Contention bouncing requires the cpu stamp to be set on acquisition. Hence we
move __acquired into the generic path.

__acquired is then used to measure acquisition bouncing by comparing the
current cpu with the old stamp before replacing it.

__contended is used to measure contention bouncing (only useful for preemptable
locks)

back, so this wraps them with the appropriate wrapper.

NeilBrown d63a5a74de [PATCH] lockdep: avoid lockdep warning in md
md_open takes ->reconfig_mutex which causes lockdep to complain.  This
(normally) doesn't have deadlock potential as the possible conflict is with a
reconfig_mutex in a different device.

I say "normally" because if a loop were created in the array->member hierarchy
a deadlock could happen.  However that causes bigger problems than a deadlock
and should be fixed independently.

So we flag the lock in md_open as a nested lock.  This requires defining
mutex_lock_interruptible_nested.

Ingo Molnar 9a11b49a80 [PATCH] lockdep: better lock debugging
Generic lock debugging:

 - generalized lock debugging framework. For example, a bug in one lock
   subsystem turns off debugging in all lock subsystems.

 - got rid of the caller address passing (__IP__/__IP_DECL__/etc.) from
   the mutex/rtmutex debugging code: it caused way too much prototype
   hackery, and lockdep will give the same information anyway.

 - ability to do silent tests

 - check lock freeing in vfree too.

 - more finegrained debugging options, to allow distributions to
   turn off more expensive debugging features.

There's no separate 'held mutexes' list anymore - but there's a 'held locks'
stack within lockdep, which unifies deadlock detection across all lock
classes.  (this is independent of the lockdep validation stuff - lockdep first
checks whether we are holding a lock already)

Here are the current debugging options:

CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y

which do:

 config DEBUG_MUTEXES
          bool "Mutex debugging, basic checks"

 config DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
         bool "Detect incorrect freeing of live mutexes"

Ingo Molnar 1fb00c6cbd [PATCH] work around ppc64 bootup bug by making mutex-debugging save/restore irqs
It seems ppc64 wants to lock mutexes in early bootup code, with interrupts
disabled, and they expect interrupts to stay disabled, else they crash.

Work around this bug by making mutex debugging variants save/restore irq
flags.
